Reviews:

I’ve watched Ghost in the Shell at the cinema 3 days ago, knowing
beforehand about the controversies that have surrounded this movie for
the last 6 months or so. Science fiction movies are probably my
favorite genre and I also enjoyed most of Scarlett’s movies for the
past 8-9 years so those two factors were a plus for me going in.

Regarding the whitewashing business, I think its been blown way, WAY
out of proportion by social justice warriors with nothing better to do
than drag media attention over whatever they’re feeling insecure about
this month/year. For those of you who might be on the fence about
watching a Caucasian actress in the role that (supposedly) should’ve
been reserved to an Asian actress, please consider this a NON-MATTER
and watch it anyway. The character she is portraying is SUPPOSED to
look Caucasian/white. It was the same in the source material and even
the creator of that anime said so in interviews.

Now, is the movie any good? In my opinion, yes. Yes it was. It wasn’t
amazing but at the very least entertaining. There is a good amount of
people who score this a 1/10 because they are butt hurt that the story
was changed a lot. Please ignore them and see for yourself even if
you’re a fan of the anime and are able to keep an open mind. I think
maybe I was able to judge it more objectively because I had zero
knowledge about the story in the anime going in, but, if nothing else,
the movie actually made me want to watch those old ones to compare.

The acting – 7.5/10 – Since Scarlett Johansson is the only big name
that the movie is being marketed alongside, I’d say she did a good job.
At no point in the movie could I say she didn’t belong there. She
played the part of cyborg who had difficulty belonging in a human world
very well. The cast is diverse enough in my opinion, though some of
them get pretty little screen time.

The visuals – 9/10 – If there is one point most critics/viewers are in
alignment concerning this movie, that point is definitely the visuals.
The movie both looks and feels spectacular, with the futuristic city
looking like a close-future mix of Blade Runner and TRON. The
combination of CGI and practical effects looks organic, the movie’s
powerful themes of excessive self-augmentation and technology almost
running amok represented very well visually.

Soundtrack – 8/10 – Sometimes pretty subdued, sometimes
almost-but-not-quite in your face, I found the soundtrack to vary
between decent and very good in some moments. It didn’t MAKE the movie
but it enhanced a good deal in my opinion.

Story – 7/10 – Here is where the good points of the movie kinda start
to run dry. A lot of other people would probably rate it a lot lower,
with 5 or 4’s if they’re at least trying to be objective. Yes, the
story is fairly predictable, and the fact that the movie is only around
100 minutes long doesn’t do it any favors either. Here is probably
where most of the legitimate hate towards this movie stems from. The
creators adapted a story that had a lot more depth and philosophical
insight and turned it into a somewhat generic cyborg coming of age
story mixed with an evil corporation doing questionable things. The
villain is also very cookie-cutter and has almost zero depth. HOWEVER,
I do think that concerning this film’s particular themes and narrative,
a weak villain doesn’t hurt it so much since its more about
losing/gaining your humanity through technology than any bad guy trying
to shoot you.

Writing/Dialogue – 6/10 – By far the movie’s weakest aspect. In fact, I
believe if some more meaningful dialogue and character interactions
were written into this film, it could’ve easily been 1 or 2 points
higher on anyone’s scoring system. As it is, the dialogue is shallow
and fairly run-of-the-mill for about half the movie’s length. Some bits
of good interactions are sprinkled here and there, and thankfully
that’s enough to preserve the soul of the movie’s central theme of
human souls surviving in machine bodies, BUT not enough to give Ghost
in the Shell the depth it should’ve inherited from the source material.

Overall – I gave this movie 3.5/5 stars here, mostly because I
couldn’t give it a 7.5/10 which felt more appropriate to me. My advice
would be to not listen to the whitewashing nonsense, because that’s
exactly what it is, nonsense. Also don’t listen to the haters who rate
this movie a 1/10 or call it shit because those people should not be
reviewing anything to begin with. It is a decent movie, with great
visuals and a theme that might get you thinking for a couple of days
after seeing it. The acting is decent, with an above average
performance from Scarlett and a good soundtrack that might hit the
right spot on occasion. The only bad aspects, like I mentioned, are the
film’s rather short running time and weak dialogue/writing which hold
it back from being truly great.

I boned up on this movie by watching the 1995 version and Stand Alone Complex for a bit, loved the repartée from Major Kusanagi and her crew and hoped it would translate to the big screen. The movie succeeds in displaying the setting and overall feel of the area. Everything is a grainy, low-tech with abundant neon and cyber-solidified humans. Sadly, the script is a bit of a mess. Kusanagi becomes Major Mira Killian (you’ll see why toward the end the film) and Scarlett Johhansson, generally a quite credible actress, is sort of wasted here.

We do not get a lot of character development for her or her crewmates. There aren’t a lot of quirky, funny moments as there are in the animated versions. Worse still, a lot of the teaser from the movie are just absent here, and one feels cheated. Overall this is a fine bit of popcorn absorption but fails to live up the series’s standards and fails to give any of the actors much to work with. See it on a rainy day, if nothing else.

3.5/5

what’s real and what’s dream
I will review this movie as a stand alone and not as part of a GitS universe. There is no need to tell a long time fan something about this and it might even be impossible to write an accurate review for a fan. For someone who doesn’t know the 90s anime or all the other stuff, comparisons doesn’t matter anyway.

This movie is set in a future where cyber enhancement has become the norm and this opens up the questions of ethics and moral. One of the questions is: What is real and what not? The body can be altered, even replaced, as can memories and personalities. What are the consequences of this possibilities? The next question is: Where is the border between human and robot? What makes a human human? And at what point is a human no longer master of his own life? This are quite philosophical questions and the movie can’t give answers. It can only make the viewer think.

One other question is: If companies control the technology, what rights do they have, and what power? Can they experiment with human bodies? Do they have the right to make decisions over this cyber enhanced humans?

Today we are at the very beginning of this development. Making this questions a topic now is quite important. We asked them too late when other technology was introduced in the past. (Like when companies started to control our food or our medicine.)

Some people complain about a movie that is set in Japan but has nearly no Asian actor in a major role. I don’t know if that’s important in an sci-fi, action movie, set in a future where all kinds of body modifications are possible. This movie was set up for a world wide audience and it doesn’t change the story where the lead actor comes from. That’s just the business side of the business. Maybe that’s not good, but we all know that the name of the lead sells at least half of the tickets.

Visually this movie is great. The acting is good, not great. The cast plays well. Johansson plays it cool or reserved. She played a robot with a human brain and no memory of the past. Her new life, the only life she knows, is that of an agent. The fact that the story doesn’t tell all the details from the beginning equals the fact that the characters know very little themselves. They know little about the attacker, Major knows nothing about her past. And the fact that she was reconstructed as a weapon makes it hard for her to be emotional. She has to get used to be human. She sees herself as an outsider. This is a movie with not many words. There are no characters who talk a lot. Well this is not Dawson’s Creek, it’s a Sci-fi setting with a military/police environment. It is not a thriller where the main character has to discover a complex secret. We don’t need Sherlock holmes, the story unfolds by the actions of the attacker. The philosophical or moral questions are what’s interesting, not the crimes.

Solid 7-star. Very good.
The film plays like a six, in that the story line is good but maybe not top-notch, but the ending is spectacular, and by spectacular I mean better than your average excellent film out there.

So this is a seven to me, and recommended to all my friends and family.
